So solemn, such a melancholy tale. Souch expressed in so few words. A heartfelt poem with a photograph of beautiful flower to accompany your words. It is the flower that signals to me that not all hope is lost. Beautifully composed. Jacqueline

This is a rather sad poem. The artwork you attached is perfect for the subject you are writing about. The poem evokes an emotion of sadness. I wish you the best of luck in the contest.

How beautiful and sad and haunting is that? I don't think they have a word that encompasses all 3 of those things but it is a poignant and delicate write.
With it aesthetically speaking sentence structure spelling punctuation all good.
Really great submission good luck to you in the contest and I hope you have a great night!
